The Ari Safari and I headed down to Boloco on the Common to get one of the 1,000 FREE BURRITOS they were giving away today from 12-2pm thanks to Desk.com. I got lucky #80, checked into Foursquare as instructed (thanking #getdesk) and received the “swarm badge” because 50+ people had also come for free delicious Bolocorritos! We remained inside the store for all of 2 minutes, and then I SPRINTED to my car (which was pulled over around the corner with the flashers on) so I could get there before I got a tick–OH WAIT. THE PARKING METER GUY WAS WRITING A TICKET AS I JUMPED INTO THE CAR.
Then he hands me that all-too-familiar neon orange paper envelope of DOOM.
NICE RON BURGUNDY QUOTE HILMONSTAH!!!!!
Now I have paid $55 for my free burrito *sad puppy face*
LUCKILY, after Hilmonstah tweeted several photos of the result of the City of Boston Transport’s
APPALLING MERCILESS HAWK-LIKE TICKETING,
Boloco’s CEO, John Pepper, stepped in to save the day by tweeting:
WE LOVE YOU BOLOCO & @DESK AND THIS BURRITO IS YUMZZZZZZZ!!!!!
CITY OF BOSTON FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!

Took my 12 year old lil daughter to a free screening of the Chipmunks at AMC Boston Common on a cold and dank sunday. Normally we’d take the T in, but we were running late and she really wanted to see this gem, so Daddy that I am I drove in – but was a bit shy on the $20 or so for parking lest we not get snacks at the flick. Anyyyway… parked on this desolate, not a car in sight street about 4 blocks back…. sure enough some trudging lil troll person had whacked me. Made for an expensive, shitty movie. *But, the kid like it so… meh.
EPIC

nothing is ever free. This morning I saw a meter maid hovering around the van like a vulture while filling a box. I smoothly made my way back to the van, quietly slithered in the drivers seat while she was beginning her citation and calmly drove off into the sunset, or was it a car fire? I forget but I stuck it to them. she was pissed. Hope that is a victory for you.
$55? where were you parked at an emergency room entrance?
Please make this story the first DigFilm Studios production, melodramatic/Lifetime style. Lauren as herself, J. Pat and Hil as heartless meter maids and Dave as the kindly CEO.
I’d like a Lauren Metter burrito with a side of sweet Jesus!
Heartless meter maid is the part I was born to play.
can I play a cop?
There wasn’t a cop involved, thank god. Then I’d have disappeared forever in the secret underground Occupy jail.
You can be the burrito maker!!
